Finally...

...the little boy is asleep. He has been very cranky these days. I don't know if he's feeling under the weather. His gums are swollen. In addition to that, he is itching all-over due to allergies. He may be seeking for attention also. I haven't been carrying him as much as I used to since he's putting too much weight on my tummy.

His tantrums is making his yaya crazy also. I had to take him from her several times because he won't stop crying.

I decided to bring him with me while I did my errands. I had hoped that riding in the car would put his sleepy head to sleep. It did not work.

His molo soup dinner and a bath later helped him settle down.

-------------------

...my hospital bag is ready. Most of the Mama and Daddy stuff are in there. We just need to include toiletries, snacks and several nursing gowns. The camera is there too, together with the charger. I think we have enough to last us for three days. I hope we won't stay longer than that.

-------------------

...the baby bag is almost complete. We just need to launder Johann's newborn shirts, sterilize by breast-pump, shield and feeding bottles. I also have to include a going home outfit for the boy.

I just have some items in Baby#2's nice-to-have wish list:
  • Swaddle-Me blankets - I do not know how to swaddle a baby
  • more Born-free baby bottles - the ones we got were glass bottles
  • more breast milk storage bags
  • mittens
The Podium is on sale this weekend. I wonder if Baby and Co. will have those items at reduced prices?

Excited

That is how I felt when I got up from bed this morning. There are just so many things to do and to look forward to this week. I'd have to... ... get hold of CCP to discuss a possible tie-up for the next Three Festival. I may need to get some contacts from Tito Bal. ... get the space application form from Ayala Malls. ... visit the furniture fair at SMX this weekend. ... get a new copy of our marriage certificate for Vic's Visa renewal. ... obtain franchise terms from my top two food chains. ... interview the new househelp prospect. ...see if we can finally sell our SUV to make room for a bigger one. I hope I can get started soon. I hope Javi's yaya gets well right away so I can slip and get some of these done.

Luxury Bags in Japan

Since almost everyone I know visited Japan this summer, I would like re-live my visit this year through this post.  This time, I will focus on luxury bags. We've heard about the usual reseller shops that house these luxury brands.  The one I can remember now is Daikokuya. I must've visited almost all reseller shops I've seen on the road.  I've noticed that these shops carry the top 3 popular ones:  Hermes, Chanel and Louis Vuitton.  There still are several pieces of Balenciaga, Valentino, Tory Burch, Celine, Gucci and Michael Kors but not as abundant as the top 3.  I guess what carries the most value are the three popular ones. If you are looking for cheap designer bags, I suggest checking out Don Quixote.  You will usually find on the topmost floors on Donki.  I think this is the one in Shinjuku. I am not so sure. You find them arranged like this or inside locked glass cabinets.  I'm sure the artisans who made these bags will tu...

Peacher Grapes

Last weekend, we were invited to PAREF Rosefield's Open House. We've been meaning to formalize our intent to enroll Johann there. It was a great opportunity for us to know more about how the school is run and how it differs from other schools. The Orientation affirmed what we believe, that the parents are the primary educators. They also share the same values that we'd like to foster in our kids. Their method of instruction is not too limitting . It seems to have the right mix of structured and unstructured instruction. We were also informed that the kids got into the big schools of their choice. That speaks well of their effectiveness as a school. I also like the fact that they give formation and skills classes to yayas while they're waiting for their alagas to finish class. -------------------- We brought Johann with us so he'd be more familiar with the faces and the school grounds. There was one kid who wanted to drag him to the play area. She was ...
